    Aight I gave it a whirl this morning. Took it through Wolfs den and explored all the forest roads. Im extremely surprised at how capable my truck is in it's releatively stock form. Both me and my dad were kinda surprised at how Wolfs Den was labeled as "easy" when we got about half way through though, but it took those rocks like a champ! Trail was kinda soupy in spots I guess from the rain. I wasnt able to hook up with any group so I wasnt really feeling comfortable about trying any more difficult trails. I was infront of a group of stock looking wranglers and I think one of them was having some trouble in spots that I went through with a little extra skinny pedal. The truck did everything I needed it to and I didnt break anything so consider me happy. 1111181123.jpg

    About half way through where it intersects with another trail. Nothing too big but I wasnt expecting it.
    Edit: I may have taken some more challenging approaches

    There is a short, rocky little hill with a turn at the bottom. It is easy, just have to take it slow being in a stock vehicle and really no issue in any Taco. Nothing after doing Rocky Mtn..
    Talked to an ARB regional manager yesterday, and still on the fence with Billstein or OME configuration..Guess we’ll know when I get some bills caught up and get something ordered..

    I stay left if going down the hill and 4Lo 1st gear. I try to go between the tree and the rock at the bottom. I did bang pretty good last time out on the trail from a hole that hadn’t been there..lol! You can ride that trail and some others all day long by yourself. I would at least have a spotter going up Rocky Mtn being stock..

    Yeah..I talked a while with the ARB rep. I don’t believe either setup is bad,just if I want a rebound shock or not and if I am doing more rock crawling or fire roads I guess. The rep said he does just fine with what Uwharrie offers..He just said the ARB would be more vehicle specific..

    After my first trip I guess I don't realize any pebbles anymore. Daniel has some rocks though

    Yeah it was a good obstacle for my 1st time out. Probably wont go back until next year but Im glad to say I went. I may have gone a bit to fast through it but you live and you learn I guess.
